Lowe wins Republican nomination for sheriff; Republicans nominate Colsey, Williams for Louisa, Jackson BOS seats
One-term incumbent Donnie Lowe last Monday easily overcame an aggressive challenge from newcomer Tim Sansone to claim the Republican nomination for sheriff in a mass meeting hosted by the Louisa County Republican Committee.
The meeting capped a contentious campaign in which Sansone sharply attacked Lowe on his leadership at the sheriff’s office, arguing that the department struggles to recruit and retain deputies, pays them too little and lacks transparency and professionalism. The Lake Anna resident, who runs a Fairfax-based private security company, argued that he has the knowledge and skills to effectively lead the department and a vision for its future. He framed the nomination as a “referendum on the status quo.”
Lowe, a 35-year veteran of LCSO, touted his experience and the relationships he’s built with the community over the last three decades as reasons he should be the nominee. He pointed to the county’s low crime rate as a marquee achievement and called out his opponent for having never held a job in law enforcement.
Sansone’s onslaught of criticism—amplified by at least $45,000 worth of campaign mailers, online ads, door-knocking and related expenses paid for by the candidate—did little to sway the hundreds of Republicans who crowded the Betty Queen Center gym. Some attendees waited in line for more than an hour to clear the party’s registration and check-in process.
When it came time to choose the nominee, Bill Billingsley, who was selected by the committee to run the meeting, asked Sansone’s supporters to stand to signify they were voting for him. Tellers counted the votes and Billingsley announced that Sansone received 60 votes from the 583 qualified voters in attendance. Billingsley then asked Lowe’s supporters to stand, and hundreds of residents rose from their seats, prompting him to declare Lowe the winner.
“My mama and daddy didn’t raise the smartest boy in the classroom. But it is the opinion of the chairman that Sheriff Lowe is your nominee,” Billingsley said to loud applause.
By clinching the nomination, Lowe earns the right to represent the party in the November 7 general election. At publication time, no independent or Democrat has filed to challenge him. Sansone said in a Facebook post last month that he wouldn’t run as an independent, referencing a pledge candidates sign to not pursue office if they are passed over for the Republican nomination.
In a Facebook post on Tuesday, Sansone thanked his supporters and said that he prays that Lowe will keep the county safe.
“I have congratulated Sheriff Lowe on his nomination last night. I pray that God may guide him in leading the Sheriff’s Office, and that he may keep the citizens of Louisa County safe. That is a goal I believe we both want,” he said.
Lowe, who garnered endorsements from 5th District Congressman Bob Good and Louisa County Board of Supervisors Chair Duane Adams, said in a Facebook post Tuesday that he was “humbled” by the outpouring of support. Good introduced Lowe at the meeting and announced his endorsement to cheers from the crowd.
“There are some political offices where we like to have an outsider, right? We like to have fresh perspectives, newcomers instead of old politicians,” Good said. “But there are some positions where relevant job experience, a proven track record, having earned respect (matters)…I’ve been to event after event, and I’ve seen Sheriff Lowe and the respect he has from the constituents and the citizens of Louisa County.”
Before the vote, Sansone and Lowe were each given eight minutes to make their final pitch to voters. Sansone echoed arguments he’s made throughout the campaign. He said his experience building and running Sentry Force Security, his private security firm, equipped him with the know-how to lead the sheriff’s office, noting that the company has some 300 employees, a $14 million annual budget and provides security services to both public and private entities across the commonwealth.
Sansone contrasted his professional experience with Lowe’s tenure as sheriff, arguing that LCSO is a poorly run department that struggles to hire deputies and lacks professionalism and proper training, problems he linked to its lack of accreditation. He claimed that the department had added few new officers in the last four years and that Lowe promoted deputies based on “loyalty to the sheriff” not merit.
As sheriff, Sansone pledged to achieve accreditation, a process in which a third-party accrediting agency ensures that the department meets a range of professional standards, and, with the help of federal grants, hire 15 to 20 new deputies and hike officer pay. Lowe has said that the department plans to pursue accreditation later this year.
“While Sheriff Lowe wants to sell you the past and the same old way of doing things, I’m sharing with you a vision for the future, a vision for a safer Louisa County, a vision for a department that is adequately staffed with fairly paid deputies and dispatchers who are selected not based on their connections but based on their skills, a vision for safer courthouses and safer schools,” Sansone said.
The typically mild-mannered Lowe ran a quiet campaign compared to his brash opponent. But he took on a somewhat sharper tone Monday night. Lowe homed in on his experience and track record, citing statistics from a recent report from the Jefferson Area Community Criminal Justice Board that ranked Louisa as one of the safest localities in the commonwealth. And he reminded voters that his opponent has “never worked in law enforcement at any level.”
Beyond experience, Lowe said that Sansone has shown that he “lacks maturity, credibility and judgement,” referencing a campaign ad that Sansone shared on social media and in other outreach that questioned the security of Louisa County Public Schools. Lowe said the ad suggested “that our schools were an easy target for an active shooter.”
“Not only was that (ad) reckless and dangerous, but it was also false,” Lowe told the crowd, noting that each of Louisa’s six schools is “protected by an armed, trained school resource officer.”
“I’m part of our School Safety Taskforce and I take the safety of our schools, students, teachers and staff very, very seriously,” Lowe said. “We do not need a leader who would purposely put our children at risk.”
Republicans nominate Colsey, Williams for Louisa, Jackson BOS seats
Local Republicans also selected their nominee for two seats on the Louisa County Board of Supervisors. The party nominated two-term incumbent Toni Williams in the Jackson District and Blue Ridge Shores resident Christopher Colsey in the Louisa District. Both ran unopposed.
Colsey, a public school teacher in Fluvanna County and adjunct college professor, is a newcomer to Louisa politics but has extensive experience in local government outside the county. He briefly worked as a senior legislative aide to the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors and served in elected and appointed positions in town and county government in New York. In a speech prior to his nomination, Colsey touted his experience and previous political success, noting that he was elected three times to municipal government posts in a Democrat-friendly area.
Colsey said that he’s committed to protecting the county’s rural character, having seen the impact of unbridled residential growth in other communities.
“I’ve lived in areas where one day the farmers are growing corn, and the next day they are growing condominiums. We can’t turn that around. We need to control the growth. Now, do we have room for commercial growth? Absolutely. But we want to make sure we aren’t growing condominiums here,” he said.
Colsey will face at least one challenger this fall. Greg Jones, a small business owner and former president of the Louisa branch of the NAACP, announced last month that he’ll seek the seat. Jones represented the Louisa District on the Planning Commission from 2017 to 2020. Eric Purcell, who currently represents the district, announced in March that he won’t seek re-election.
Williams, a builder and farmer, also spoke before his nomination, telling the crowd that he stands for “limited government and great schools.” He said that one of his top accomplishments during his two terms was working with the sheriff’s office to make Louisa County the first locality in the state to have a school resource officer in every school. Williams credited Lowe with making the SRO program a success.
“Our SROs are committed to building relationships with students, staff and families. Our SROs are some of the most beloved people we have in our schools. In a world where police officers are made to look bad, Sheriff Lowe has made it a priority to have the right school resource officers in our schools to ensure positive relationships are being built between our students and law enforcement,” he said.
At publication time, no one has announced plans to challenge Williams in November.
Chris McCotter, a Lake Anna resident who’s seeking the Cuckoo District supervisor seat, and Rusty McGuire, who’s vying for his fourth term as commonwealth’s attorney, round out the party’s local ticket. McCotter and McGuire secured the Republican nomination after no one filed to challenge them in state-run primaries, LCRC’s chosen nominating method for those contests.
McCotter spoke briefly on Monday night, describing himself as a “receptive, well-qualified, man of the people” and highlighting his career as a small business owner and community activist. McCotter and his wife, Chrissie, own Lake Anna Outfitters and Lake Anna Life and Times newspaper. He’s a founding member of the Lake Anna Civic Association and the Lake Anna Business Partnership and serves as chair of the Lake Anna Advisory Committee, an interjurisdictional panel that advises local government on issues related to the lake.
At publication time, no one has filed to challenge McCotter in Cuckoo. The district’s longtime representative, Willie Gentry, opted not to seek a sixth term.
Like McCotter, McGuire doesn’t currently have an opponent. He didn’t speak during Monday’s meeting.
Eleven county offices are on the ballot this fall including the Louisa, Jackson and Cuckoo District Board of Supervisors and School Board seats and five constitutional offices: sheriff; commonwealth’s attorney; treasurer; commissioner of the revenue; and clerk of court.
Residents will also elect two representatives to the Thomas Jefferson Soil and Water Conservation District’s board of directors and voters in the Town of Mineral will hold a special election to fill one seat on Town Council. Residents have until June 20 to file to run for county office and August 18 to file for the Mineral council seat.
At the state level, Louisa voters will choose their representatives in the House of Delegates and state Senate. Read more about this year’s elections here, here and here.
Supervisors to consider adoption of $189.1 million budget
The Louisa County Board of Supervisors on Monday night will convene for its second May meeting with adoption of its proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2024 the marquee item on a brief agenda. Check out a preview of the meeting below.
Board to consider adoption of FY24 budget: After delaying a vote on the county’s proposed FY24 budget last month—ostensibly to wait on final amendments to the biennial state budget—supervisors will consider adopting the spending plan Monday night. The new fiscal year kicks off July 1.
The proposed budget totals $189.1 million including $147.9 million for operations and maintenance and $41.18 million in capital expenses. As advertised, the budget includes a slate of level tax rates including a 72-cent per $100 of assessed value rate for real estate and a $2.43 per $100 of assessed value rate for personal property. The board hasn’t raised either rate in eight years, and both rank among the lowest in the area.
But assessments on homes jumped nearly 14 percent over last year, so, under a level rate, many homeowners would see their tax bills rise. To provide some relief, the board proposed a five percent real estate tax rebate, which equates to a three-cent reduction in the tax rate. If the budget, rates and rebate are adopted as proposed, the rate will remain at 72 cents, but property owners will pay a levy based on a 69-cent rate.
At publication time, the meeting agenda only includes resolutions to adopt the FY24 capital and operating budgets. It doesn’t include a resolution to adopt the tax rates though the rates are typically set at the same meeting.
The board’s decision to place budget adoption on Monday’s agenda marks a change in previous plans.
Board Chair Duane Adams said in April that supervisors intended to wait on their budget until lawmakers in a politically-divided General Assembly hammered out a deal on state spending, noting that Louisa County Public Schools and other county agencies rely heavily on state funding.
But legislators have said they’re in no hurry to finalize a budget bill, signaling that they could wait until the waning days of the fiscal year to strike a deal. According to media reports, budget negotiators said they want to review state revenues for the last quarter of FY23 before moving ahead with any amendments.
Supervisors have apparently opted not to wait any longer on their spending plan. County Finance Director Wanda Colvin said at previous meetings that the proposed budget includes projections on what the county expects to receive from the state and the board could tweak the document post-adoption if those numbers change.
The proposed $147.9 million operating budget, up more than 9 percent over last year, allocates nearly $90 million to Louisa County Public Schools, roughly 61 percent of the county’s total expenditures. Another 14 percent, or $21.3 million, pays for public safety including the daily operations of the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office and the county’s Fire and EMS Department.
Driving some of the increase in operating expenses is a nearly 10 percent hike in school funding, 13 additional county staffers—eight new firefighters, three new sheriff’s deputies, and two new animal control attendants—a five percent pay hike for staff, and a 6.6 percent increase in employees’ health insurance costs. The schools’ budget also includes a five percent salary increase for teachers and support staff, a similar hike in health insurance rates, and funding for four new teachers, three of which were hired prior to the start of the current academic year.
The capital budget totals $41.1 million, roughly $30 million more than last year. Driving much of that increase is $27.5 million to deliver water and sewer infrastructure to the Shannon Hill Regional Business Park, a 700-acre industrial site just north of Interstate 64 that county officials hope will one day be home to distribution centers, advanced manufacturing or other large-scale economic development. An $11.59 million state grant will offset part of the project’s cost. Other big-ticket items include nearly $3 million for Firefly Fiber Broadband’s county-wide fiber project and $3.4 million for two turf fields adjacent to Louisa County Middle School.
The capital budget also includes about $1.5 million for the school division with more than half of that money earmarked for new school buses and other vehicles. The schools’ capital spending is slightly less than what was presented in April because the board approved a nearly $300,000 budget supplement at its last meeting to provide funding for several smaller projects this fiscal year.
To pay for its spending, the county anticipates $155 million in revenue, a roughly 18 percent jump over last year. The county derives its revenue from a variety of sources including about 37 percent from state and federal funding. But the largest source is general property taxes, which contribute just over 50 percent of the county’s income. Thanks, in part, to rising home assessments, that revenue is expected to increase by 9.7 percent over last year when factoring in the rebate.
While revenues outpace operating expenses by about $7 million, the board still must cover its $41.1 million in capital spending. To do that, the county anticipates issuing more than $20 million in debt to pay for infrastructure at Shannon Hill and tapping capital reserves and its operating surplus.
This year’s budget process has been packed with political drama and adoption comes just a week after Adams lost a bid for the Republican nomination in the 10th state Senate District.
The board initially advertised a $209 million budget and a 72-cent real estate tax rate without a rebate. But community members sounded off at a March public hearing, accusing supervisors of raising taxes as home assessments soared and urging them to rein in spending. Adams faced sharp criticism on the campaign trail from Delegate John McGuire, the eventual 10th District nominee, who accused him of supporting steep tax hikes.
In response to residents’ concerns, Adams and Jackson District Supervisor Toni Williams, who make up the board’s finance committee, proposed the five percent rebate and nearly $3 million in cuts and changes to cover the lost revenue.
In addition, county officials removed about $18 million from the FY24 capital budget earmarked for completion of the James River Water Project, a joint effort with Fluvanna County to channel water from the river to feed development along the Interstate 64 corridor. The county is still on the hook for that money, but Colvin said it would be borrowed in FY25 through the James River Water Authority, the entity overseeing the final phase of the pipeline’s construction.
Together, the changes trim the budget to the $189.1 million proposal up for consideration Monday night.
Board to consider performance agreement for Shannon Hill grant funding: Earlier this year, the Virginia Economic Development Partnership’s Business Ready Sites Program awarded Louisa County an $11.59 million grant to bring public utilities to the Shannon Hill Regional Business Park, 700 acres of county-owned land just north of Interstate 64 that officials envision as a future home to distribution centers, advanced manufacturing, or other large-scale economic development. On Monday night, supervisors will consider approval of a performance agreement with the state that governs the funding.
Under the proposed agreement, Louisa County commits to use the grant money to deliver wet utility infrastructure to the park by November 1, 2024, providing at least a 100 percent local funding match. Supervisors included in the proposed Capital Improvement Plan for FY24 $27.5 million to pay for the infrastructure including the grant funding.
According to the agreement, the county will use more than $10.3 million of the grant money to construct 35,800 linear feet of waterline along Route 250 to the Shannon Hill site and 37,600 linear feet of force main. That portion of the project is expected to cost about $20 million with $9.85 million drawn from local funds.
Most of the remaining money is earmarked for a water booster station and wastewater infrastructure. Louisa County will commit matching funds for the booster station, provide additional money for wastewater infrastructure and pay $4.9 million for a water tank, per the agreement.
When the infrastructure is complete, the Shannon Hill site is expected to climb from Tier 3 to Tier 4 on VDEP’s ranking of site readiness. The state uses the rankings as a measuring stick for site preparedness and a marketing tool. Tier 4 denotes sites where all infrastructure is in place or will be deliverable within 12 months and all permit issues have been identified and quantified. Tier 5 sites, the highest rung, are considered shovel ready.
Governor Glenn Youngkin and the General Assembly have ramped up efforts to develop and market business parks and industrial sites across the commonwealth in hopes of landing economic development projects that spark significant capital investment and job creation.
Water Authority approves rate hike
The Louisa County Water Authority’s board of directors on Wednesday night voted unanimously to hike water and sewer rates for both residential and wholesale customers, effective July 1.
LCWA General Manager Pam Baughman said prior to the meeting that the increases are necessary to cover rising operating, compliance and maintenance costs. LCWA last raised rates in January of 2021.
“We have experienced increases in electrical costs, chemicals, health insurance, additional employees to meet new and emerging regulations, gas, diesel, propane, annual audit and Miss Utility tickets just to name a few,” Baughman said in an email to Engage Louisa.
The increase affects customers directly serviced by LCWA’s public water or sewer system. The authority draws water from the Northeast Creek Reservoir for customers in central Louisa County and public wells near Zion Crossroads for customers on the county’s southwestern edge. It provides sewer service via a regional wastewater treatment plant outside the Town of Louisa, the Zion Crossroads Wastewater Treatment Plant, and a recently acquired treatment plant at Lake Anna.
LCWA will raise the monthly base rate for water consumption by three dollars, from $20.13 to $23.13, and increase the base rate for sewer use by $4.44, from $29.79 to $34.23. The base rate applies to water and sewer use up to 3,000 gallons per month.
Beyond that threshold, water rates will jump $1 dollar for every 1,000 gallons used, rising from $6.71 to $7.71. Sewer rates will increase $1.48 per 1,000 gallons, jumping from $9.93 to $11.41.
A residential customer that falls at or below the 3,000-gallon threshold will see their monthly bill rise from $55.92 to $63.36 including LCWA’s $6 monthly administrative fee. The bill for a household that uses 4,000 gallons of water and sewer service a month will increase about $10.
Wholesale water rates will rise 78 cents for 1,000 gallons, increasing from $5.21 to $5.99. Wholesale rates apply to customers who source at least 4.25 million gallons of water from the authority per month.
The Town of Louisa buys water from LCWA at the wholesale rate then sells that water to its residents. Town residents won’t see a hike in their water bills unless the Louisa Town Council opts to raise its rates. Per a public notice, council will consider a rate hike during a public hearing on the town’s proposed FY24 budget at its May 16 meeting.
The Town of Mineral buys some of its water from the authority but doesn’t qualify for a wholesale discount because it doesn’t meet the usage threshold, according to Baughman. Residents who receive public utility service from Mineral’s system are subject to rates set by the Mineral Town Council. Council will consider its rates at a May 24 meeting, according to a public notice.
LCWA’s board had limited discussion about the rate hike prior to approval. One member commented on the rising cost to run the authority as the county grows. Another member said that if the authority didn’t raise rates, taxpayers who don’t receive public water and sewer service would pick up the slack.
“We are balancing the operations budget for water and sewer. We do not make any money. We cannot make any money. We’re not a corporation. We’re a pseudo government entity authorized under the County of Louisa, so all of our rates are for us to cover the costs and mainly to cover the costs by the users versus the rest of Louisa County who doesn’t get water and sewer from our services,” he said. “If we didn’t make enough money then the county would pay for it and people who aren’t being served would pay your water bill or your sewer bill.”
Only one resident weighed in on the rate increase at the meeting though multiple community members sent emails urging the board not to raise rates.
Spring Creek resident Robert Ferrara said that he’d prefer that LCWA retain its current rates, but if it’s going to change them, he’d like for the authority to increase the base rate threshold or consider implementing seasonal rates.
“I’m for maintaining the status quo on rates right now. But, if you want to raise the rates for 3,000 gallons a month, we should get at least an extra 250. Or, have you ever considered having a winter rate and summer rate because people use less water in the winter,” he said.
Ferrara also expressed concerns about what he views as the authority’s limited efforts to promote water conservation, suggesting that more could be done including providing residents with low-flow shower heads and rain barrels.
Baughman said that LCWA sends out a brochure annually with water conservation tips and previously considered a rain barrel program but determined it “cost prohibitive for a small rural utility.”
In other business, Baughman told the board that, as of May 1, the authority is operating the Lake Anna Wastewater Treatment Plant. The Board of Supervisors agreed to buy the facility from Lake Anna Environmental Services earlier this year for $90,000 with plans to upgrade and expand it to support future economic development along the Route 208 corridor.
The facility provides sewer service to Lake Anna Plaza and adjoining townhomes along Route 208 and is expected to eventually serve a Planned Unit Development featuring condos and a hotel slated for 15 lakefront acres across the street. The project’s developer, LA Resort, LLC, proffered $1 million toward the plant’s upgrade when the Board of Supervisors rezoned the property for mixed use development in January. The county estimates that it could cost between $7 and $11 million to upgrade and expand the facility depending on the extent of the expansion.
Under its previous owner, the facility repeatedly ran afoul of Department of Environmental Quality regulations. Since the county assumed responsibility for its operation, Baughman said that staff has been cleaning up the property and assessing next steps to ensure compliance.
“Monday, May 1, it was just like the Kentucky Derby. We came out of the gate like those 18 horses did on Saturday. We were just legs and arms everywhere,” Baughman said.
As part of its consent agenda for Monday’s meeting, supervisors will consider approving a $100,000 appropriation for initial repair work at the plant. But Baughman said that isn’t enough. She didn’t publicly offer a cost estimate.
Planning Commission okays CUP for equipment rental business
The Louisa County Planning Commission last Thursday night voted unanimously to recommend to the Board of Supervisors approval of Sortie, Inc.’s request for a Conditional Use Permit to operate an equipment rental business at 6043 Jefferson Highway (Route 33) near its intersection with Pendleton Road (Route 522) in the Cuckoo Voting District. The .75-acre property (tmp 72 54A) is zoned general commercial (C-2).
Ryan Odom, Sortie’s owner, plans to rent small equipment like tillers, pumps, generators, compressors and aerators and offer U-Haul and trailer rental. He said that he started his business about a year ago to fill a void in the tool rental market and the Jefferson Highway location provides increased visibility. Odom is leasing the property, which is home to a building with multiple garage bays, from the Wayne R. Byrd Revocable Living Trust.
“Coming to an agreement on this CUP will allow Sortie to fill the missing equipment rental market in this area. Some of you may be familiar that the local hardware stores have stopped renting tools. I’ll be filling that market,’ Odom said.
Mark Wood, an adjoining property owner, was the only resident to speak during the public hearing. Wood said he supports the request and thinks the business will fill a need in the community.
Community Development Department staff recommended approval of the CUP with eight conditions including that the business use dark-sky compliant lighting, open only from 8 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday, and 8 am and 2 pm on Saturday, and implement some buffer and screening measures.
In its report, staff notes that, while the parcel is situated in an area designated as “rural,” the proposed use fits with the character of surrounding properties.
“The proposed business is consistent with the mixed character of the surrounding area which includes existing businesses that are commercial and industrial zoned parcels (dismantling/recycling of auto parts to the north and mini storage to the southwest),” staff writes. “It is the opinion of staff that the proposed equipment sales and rental business would not only broaden the County’s tax base by establishing a new business, but it will also be providing a service to the farmers, homeowners, and contractors in the County.”
Commissioners recommended a tweak to the initial conditions, which stipulated that Odom couldn’t open until 9 am. They suggested an earlier opening time, noting that Odom wouldn’t be required to open before 9 but including an earlier time in the permit would allow him the flexibility to do so. Odom agreed that asking for an 8 am start was a good idea.
Commissioners also expressed concern about screening along the parcel’s shared boundary with Wood’s property, pointing out that the trees the applicant is relying on to help screen the business belong to Wood. Per staff, the applicant will add supplemental plantings and possibly additional screening in accordance with an approved buffer/screening plan.
